Tyler Goodlet bb13b79df5 Drop the "main" task via kwarg idea
Stop worrying about a "main task" in each actor and instead add an
additional `ActorNursery.run_in_actor()` method which wraps calls
to create an actor and run a lone RPC task inside it. Note this
adjusts the public API of `ActorNursery.start_actor()` to drop
its `main` kwarg.

The dirty deats of making this possible:
- each spawned RPC task is now tracked with a specific cancel scope such
  that when the actor is cancelled all ongoing responders are cancelled
  before any IPC/channel machinery is closed (turns out that spawning
  new actors from `outlive_main=True` actors was probably borked before
  finally getting this working).
- make each initial RPC response be a packet which describes the
  `functype` (eg. `{'functype': 'asyncfunction'}`) allowing for async
  calls/submissions by client actors (this was required to make
  `run_in_actor()` work - `Portal._submit()` is the new async method).
- hooray we can stop faking "main task" results for daemon actors
- add better handling/raising of internal errors caught in the bowels of
  the `Actor` itself.
- drop the rpc spawning nursery; just use the `Actor._root_nursery`
- only wait on `_no_more_peers` if there are existing peer channels that
  are actually still connected.
- an `ActorNursery.__aexit__()` now implicitly waits on `Portal.result()` on close
  for each `run_in_actor()` spawned actor.
- handle cancelling partial started actors which haven't yet connected
  back to the parent
